An operator reported at this time.

"The ships of the Heike Free State are requesting communication."

"Connect."

Li Ruiqi replied indifferently.

Immediately afterward, Hailu's holographic image reappeared. She said gratefully, "Thank you so much for your country's rescue. I wonder if we could follow you?"

"I'm sorry, that would be inconvenient. Besides, Miss Hailu, your ship can't keep up with ours. But don't worry, now that the other party has been defeated, they shouldn't dare to come again. You should leave this starfield as soon as possible."

Li Ruiqi said lightly.

"Okay, thank you very much."

Although Hailu was a little disappointed, she also knew that it was already benevolent of them to save her.

Just then, suddenly the entire radar system of the Black Yao issued an extremely ear-piercing alarm.

"Warning, the Black Yao is locked!"

The operator shouted in horror!

"Scanning a Tier 4 mothership, the Kunkan!"

"Scanning a large number of Type IV biological mechs!"

.....

Before everyone could react, the edge of the original empty scanning radar display was filled with dense red dots in the next second.

The distribution of these red dots was like a red pocket, and the Black Yao was in the middle.

Everyone was dumbfounded at this scene.

In the starry sky in front, a Tier 4 mothership with a length of 110 kilometers, covered with black reinforced armor, a flat and elongated hull, and 7,000 missile launchers all over its body, emerged. Special mine-shaped shielding camouflage devices were scattered around its fleet.

Immediately afterward, small and medium-sized battleships ready to go were followed by emerging from different areas nearby.

At the same time, Type IV biological mechs of different models led groups of mechs to appear.

Roughly looking over, more than just one Tier 4 mothership appeared, accompanied by 32 battleships.

The number of participating mechs reached thousands, and even Type IV mechs reached eight.

Black Yao, Li Ruiqi reacted immediately.

"Not good, it's the Imperial Army, we're surrounded! Immediately issue an emergency combat order! Lower the bow and prepare to charge over!"

How could the Black Yao beat the enemy's fleet of this scale.

"Yes!"

Immediately, everyone in the command room moved.

Spader didn't say a word and turned around immediately, heading towards the GT department!

Augulas covered his chest, feeling a sharp pain in his heart. He was extremely regretful at this time. He didn't expect to be ambushed near his home.

Obviously, this was a premeditated ambush. The other party had set up a large number of P30 mobile shielding devices near the fleet in advance to conceal their forces.

At the same time, they had set up bait with extremely sinister intentions, trying to guide them over.

Although the Black Yao didn't take the bait, it still slowed down.

The only thing to be thankful for was that the other party's mothership was not on the same level as the Youyin that ambushed them before, so there was still a glimmer of hope.

.....

Inside the Tier 4 mothership Kunkan's command room.

Duke Danluka stared at the Black Yao, which was deviating from its course, with a grin.

"Reporting, Duke Danluka, the other party is trying to break through!"

"Once they're in the pocket, they still want to escape, how utterly foolish!"

"Lord Danluer, according to inside information, the Black Yao is returning fully loaded. As long as we capture the Black Yao, we'll be rich."

The eyes of the surrounding subordinates were full of greed and excitement.

"Tsk tsk, main gun attack!"

Danluer issued the order without hesitation.

In an instant, the Kunkan's main gun fired, and a gray beam of light cut through the starry sky, instantly hitting the Black Yao's energy shield as it forcibly broke through.

Boom~

After the gray beam hit the Black Yao's energy shield, the light scattered in all directions.

The entire Black Yao was shaking violently.

Putemi reported immediately: "Reporting, the Black Yao's energy shield has dropped by thirty-four percent!"

"Reporting, the other party's Type IV biological mechs are approaching at high speed!"

"Reporting! The enemy's fleet is attacking, and a large number of missiles are heading towards us."

.....

One bad news after another kept coming.

"Activate interception!"

Li Ruiqi immediately issued the order.

The Black Yao, which was breaking through, released a large number of interceptor missiles and activated its close-in defense guns.

Even so, a large number of stray missiles still bombarded the Black Yao's shield, and the integrity of the Black Yao's energy shield continued to decline.

The entire ship was shaking.

Augulas asked Li Ruiqi with a very ugly face, "What do we do now?"

"The other party obviously wants to eat us up. We'll fight back while retreating. We absolutely cannot let them capture the Black Yao. We're almost in the radiation zone of Star Ring City. As long as we escape for a while longer, the other party might abandon the attack out of concern for the rules of Star Ring City."

Li Ruiqi said with a very ugly face.

"What if the other party is determined?"

Augulas asked.

Li Ruiqi gritted his teeth and turned to roar at Putemi, "Immediately send a distress message to Speaker Long Ming."

"Understood!"

Putemi replied immediately.

Then Li Ruiqi turned to look at Augulas, and said with red eyes, "The best outcome is that we escape, or that we hold out until reinforcements arrive in time. Otherwise, the worst outcome is self-destruction. We absolutely cannot let these resources fall into the hands of the enemy."

One must know that the Federation's failure to obtain the resources was already a heavy blow in itself, but if these resources were to fall into the hands of the enemy, it would be an even more disastrous consequence!

"I understand."

Augulas replied, gritting his teeth. He had now seen how disgusting these people were.

.....

Inside the Black Yao, Su Mo had just finished exercising and was lying on his bed browsing the Star Ring Forum on his phone when a sudden, ear-piercing alarm sounded.

"Warning, the Black Yao is under attack by the Imperial Army and has entered a Level 1 combat state. All civilians are to take refuge immediately, and all combat personnel are to return to their posts immediately!"

....

At this moment, Su Mo's door was suddenly pushed open.

Qian Chengxue rushed in immediately.

"Su Mo, emergency combat alert! Ah!"

After shouting, Qian Chengxue quickly closed the door again, her face flushed.

"......"

At this time, Su Mo, who had just finished exercising, was lying on the bed in his briefs, looking at his phone, completely naked, and had not yet reacted.

"Ah! Right away!"

Realizing what was happening, Su Mo quickly jumped out of bed and put on his mechanical armor.

In a few minutes, the two of them rushed out of the room and ran towards the GT department.

The entire street was in chaos, with civilians fleeing in panic everywhere, and combat personnel rushing to their battle stations.

"What the hell, weren't we almost home? Is the Imperial Army crazy to attack us at this critical moment?"

Qian Chengxue couldn't help but say in a low voice.

"You don't need to think to know that they're here to rob us."

Su Mo immediately guessed what was going on.

Qian Chengxue showed a look of disbelief and said to Su Mo, "They're really brave enough, aren't they afraid of breaking their teeth?"

"I'm just afraid that the other party's appetite is too good."

Su Mo's expression was very gloomy. The Black Yao was a Tier 4 mothership.
